tungsten alloy as a radiation protection material in the medical industry
Product details
Why use tungsten alloy as a radiation protection material in the medical industry?
Tungsten alloy has special properties, high density, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, environmental protection and non-toxic, stable performance, and good processing ductility. It is the preferred material for shielding components in the medical industry.
Due to the high shielding ability of tungsten alloy materials in medical tungsten alloy shielding components against various rays, a 90% attenuation thickness of only 3mm is required to block 150keV gamma rays, making them very suitable for situations that require high spatial resolution, such as medical collimators, multi page gratings, etc
Industry for the use of tungsten alloy targets:
Tungsten alloy targets are widely used in industry, such as medical imaging equipment (such as CT scanners, X-ray machines) and industrial non-destructive testing (such as non-destructive testing), semiconductor industry, photovoltaic industry, aviation industry, etc., mainly using X-ray technology.
The working principle of tungsten alloy targets:
Tungsten alloy targets are used as anode materials in X-ray tubes, utilizing their high melting point and thermal stability to collide with electrons at high speeds under high voltage, producing X-rays. These X-rays are used to penetrate the human body or materials, forming images for medical diagnosis or detection of the internal structure of objects.
Advantages and applications of tungsten alloy targets:
The use of tungsten targets has greatly improved the efficiency and clarity of X-ray imaging technology, and has had a profound impact on the fields of medical diagnosis and industrial testing.
Tungsten alloy targets can also be manufactured as radioactive shielding devices.
By utilizing the high-density properties of tungsten, tungsten targets are widely used in the field of medical radiology. As protective materials, they are used to manufacture X-ray protective barriers, containers, and other shielding devices, effectively preventing radiation damage to medical personnel and patients. They are of great value in protecting personnel's health and promoting the development of radiology.
In the field of medical imaging, X-ray technology is a fundamental and important diagnostic tool. However, improving image quality and reducing the radiation dose received by patients has always been a challenge in this field.
Using tungsten target material as the anode material for X-ray tubes, its high melting point and thermal stability make X-ray production more efficient, while providing higher image clarity.
